to continue the fiction that you killed al-qaeda in which case your foreign policy is totally inept. are you lying to get past an election that you so desperately want to win? and if the facts clearly are showing that you lied about this, what else are you lying about? fox news chief intelligence correspondent catherine herridge joins us from washington. catherine, we are hearing this evening that there is a new security camera that apparently survived the attack outside of the consulate in benghazi. what can you tell us about that? >> based on my reporting what we know is there is 50 minutes of security camera video that survived from the consulate. didn't come from a single camera. it comes from several cameras on the compound. i'm told that the most important element of the video is that it does show some of these islamists, these jihaddists into the compound and you can see them in profile and this data point shows that it is terrorism and that these faces are being matched to known jihaddists and i think the bottom line is that once again, this video shows that there was no demo

mitt romney recently made the attack a focus of criticism of the president on foreign policy. let's put it through the "spin cycle." first context. i think issa would have more credible if he didn't try to make a scandal stick to the president. he was the one that was behind the fast and furious and all male panel on contraception. the idea of him conducting a nonpartisan unbiassed investigation is just ludicrous. second of all, we should point out that republicans actually cut half a billion dollars from embassy security funding and hillary clinton actually said at the time that that could be detrimental to america's national security. they're not without fault there. i think that this message, the foreign policy attack on the president for mitt romney has had some legs and, yes, i know this is an election that's about the economy, but pollster actually did a test of mitt romney's messages, several of his messages, and the one with the resonance of independents was actually his critique of the p president on foreign policy. >> he said the developments in the middle east are b

foreign policy, i will say, was a disaster for joe biden. and jo use that word lightly pap talk about embarrassing. martha raddatz had to tell him, you're acting like iran doesn't want a nuclear weapon. he was so -- by the way, laughing through that segment was totally inappropriate. and also had a lot of falsehoods in thinks foreign policy statement that folks like ezra klein and politico have pointed out on libya, that was not a good moment for someone who's supposed to be very good on foreign policy. that said, what conservatives wanted from paul ryan was for him to wipe the floor with jsh jb. that did not happen. he did not demolish joe with his wonky brilliance. paul ryan gave a very good, solid debate performance. nothing for conservatives to complain about. but it wasn't the sort of knockout that they wanted. in fact, if joe biden hadn't been there acting a little crazy, paul ryan's delivery would have been a little flat. he only looked poised because joe biden was so animated. >> yes. i think biden to me, the main takeaway from biden

we thought rick would have been the best person to be our foreign policy spokesman. we tried to persuade him to stay on and are disappointed that he resigned. >> one thing that i want to ask on the general motors bailout. i'm curious about this. i wanted to play a very quick sound bite for you about what mitt romney said today. here's what he had to say about how he'd handle the economy versus president obama. >> people ask me, well, what would you do to get the economy going? i say well, look at what the president's done and do the opposite. >> now, of course this weekend you said the president followed mitt romney's advice on the auto bailout, which is a little confusing there because he said do the opposite of what the president did, but also confusing obviously because of that "new york times" op-ed titled "let detroit go bankrupt" written by mitt romney. it sounds like you and mitt romney aren't really on the same page. >> well, let's go back and look at that op-ed that the governor wrote back in november of 2008. at the time nobody was suggesting that the auto
